You could say I'm biased in favor of MAC and you wouldn't be totally wrong….

BUT, I didn't go into looking at that duo with the attitude of expecting it to be some heavily pigmented blush (or any attitude at all). MAC just plays around with textures and finishes so constantly, I don't look forward to consistency. I think "OK what new craziness are they coming up with today?" That's what I like about the brand. I could see some others be annoyed that every time they buy a new blush, the finish is new and different.

I'm 100% all for sheer, light, easy to deal with textures that look effortlessly natural and can help me use fewer products overall, so that's another reason I'm open minded. I'd say this blush wouldn't look right on top of full coverage foundation and then with highlighter and finishing powder on top - it'd just get buried under all that other stuff. It's so much for grab-and-go simplicity. So it depends on your personal makeup needs!

You have the perfect coloring for it, too! I think this blush is one of those colors that'd be particularly nice on redheads and redhead-attitude types ;) Perfect for laying a light wash over cute freckles!
Liba, we're so lucky to have you and to get your thoughts. Really, you're a treasure!

Sigh, I'm here wondering if I should get Ruby and True Red. They look soooo pretty in the swatches. Hmmmm

I wore Corol today. Had to buff it down a bit but that was too easy. I did not do bronzer or highlighter. Just lightly brushed Studio Fix Powder over my moisturizer and then Corol, Lorelei on the lids, PB with Siren Song over it lightly on my lips, Orpheus and copper EL mascara. LOVED how the blush looks. Amazeballs for the price.

I love True Red on you.
Thank you hon :kissy:
Thanks for sharing! True Red is a great red on you! Have you layered any of the lipglasses over it?
Thank you and not yet, but I will try it soon.....I've seen your combo and it's gorgeous as always. Been so busy try to organize everything; going out of town on Wednesday. I still have to swatch Ruby and Roxo hopefully tomorrow.

Ok, I called CS back, the woman yesterday did not even note there was an issue with my order. GFG. So this rep said the correct one will ship on Monday to my other house! Yay. I do not have to wait for this one just my stupid AA order.

Awwww, shucks :) I just had my last two wisdom teeth pulled. When my face goes back to normal, I'll try to out and post pictures. Anything to make my freckles stand out is fine in my book. Does this mean I have redhead type attitude? I hope so ;)

I did! I was originally going to get married in Chicago in April, but I just got a new job where the insurance doesn't start for a few months. Since I have migraines and other health issues, I can't be without. So we just had a quick wedding at the courthouse. I was still beautiful and wonderful. We will have the official celebration as planned on April 1st in Chicago. :)
